First and foremost, thank you Ubisoft and all who participated in creating this game. This is a fun and great game when we are able to play.

The only problem I see with this game is the high volume of disconnects, that's about it. I strongly recommend addressing this as soon as possible. Many players are getting frustrated and end up just switching to another game and you will lose a lot of fan base because of this. Not sure what the problem is, I understand your mesh topology for P2P connection. Some days are REALLY bad compared to others, not sure whats going on. I do know that transparency and communication to the public is always a plus. Maybe explain what you think the issue is and plans to address it?

Next, to all the warriors who cry, complain, whine, and say how this game is broken... The only thing broken is your skill, ability to adapt and overcome challenges.

"I cant parry, I cant guard break, this character is too OP, dominion is just a bunch of spamming "ganking" newbs".

First off, a lot of us can parry and GB just fine, go practice with the AI bots, get your timing down. That's why they have "How to Play" section, and AI. Go practice. Don't do it in a dominion game.

Secondly, "dominion is a bunch of spamming, ganking newbs". How about you read the battle field, assess the situation and adapt to what's going on around you. If you see a 4v4 battle playing out right in front of you. Don't just fly in and start attacking not expect to get double teamed or triple team.

Some advice.

Pull back, look at your teammates, and use "R"T to toggle your view on a different enemy. Jump in and jump out of battles.
If you are locked on with an opponent and you are near his teammates, don't start attacking.. Try and draw him farther away from his team, separate him from the pack. This is a team match, use your team.

Next, "these characters are too OP, omg I cant block or parry, they constantly spam"
Its a given that some characters are more favorable against other characters. In my opinion, I do really well as a PK, Valk, Berserker against heavy's or shield. However, I am extremely horrible as a Conqueror or shogoki when playing against PK's, Valk's (fast attack characters)

This game is not designed to allow you to MANUALLY block every single attack every time. You need to set your guard and hope their next strike hits your guard (pay attention to their game play, many players are repetitive, you will notice a patter, adapt to it).
Advice, set your guard for one direction (left) and be ready to dodge to the right. This allows you to cover 2 out of 3 attack zones.

I could go on and on and on, but this should be for "Combat Strategy"

Overall, this game is fun, the only problem I see is the high volume of disconnecting. Its aggravating and causing players to switch games. This isn't an "anomaly" or a "coincidence". This is frequent, repetitive.

I enjoy this game as many of us do.

Much respect to the developers, creators, and Ubisoft.

I recently bought an Xbox, specifically for this game.

According to the last warrior's den, the patch rolling out next week for pc and in theory in two weeks for consoles (their infographic the week before said two weeks or three weeks from then but we'll see) is mainly focussed on connection issues with the aim of making connections between players more resilient and in asking the game to share less between them, so hopefully that does a chunk towards it. Other than that, yeah I think they are doing well, some characters started broken or behind the curve but they are fixing it.

XBOX ONE is, even with the fastest and most stable internet in the country, the platform where "For Honor" get's the most disconnects on, yet all the devs seem to care for lately, is to cater to the likes and dislikes of the PeeC-players, playing this "game".

So welcome to DC-Hell my friend - let's see for how long your positive mood is going to last - i'll give it another week - max.

If people are still using dvr then they are part of the problem and that wasn't ubi's making, that was microsoft's last update and the devs are actively working on that. Connection has been getting better as it is, I've gone from can't do 2v2 to can get through a bunch of 4v4 at once, sometimes it is worse than others but there have been improvements and hopefully with the patch coming it will be better still.

I have DVR functions turned off since 2013 dude (because i simply don't care for having anything recorded for keeping or else) first on the normal ONE and ever since it's reslease, now on the S - stop white-knighting Ubisoft like that please, it is not MS doing, nor their fault - nice try though...

I am not white knighting, note that I said if people are using that, and evidently some are, there are game recordings that come from that, I don't use it either but I would bet some do. Also note that I have said yes there are disconnect issues, I haven't said I don;t have any, what I have said is that they have been getting better and hopefully they get better with the next patch.

When the term "broken" is referenced in gameplay, it is typically referencing character abilities, traits, something that is unfair or uneven. My comment is addressing to players who think the game is "unfair" for certain chars.

I agree with you, you cannot adapt to a disconnection.

You can restrict your Nat to yellow, which gets rid of most of the DC problems. Improvise, adapt, overcome lol :)

In my experience, I have the most disconnects in 4v4 dominion (PvP) or Skirmish 4v4 (PvP). When the disconnects get really bad, I switch to 1v1 duel or 2v2 brawl until it clams down.
I still have fun regardless.

So ... its the platforms fault, if the designer is not able to make the game run in It. I would be on your side, if we were talking about an xbox or playstation 2.

The platform has a feature. The feature is known. Adjust your design to work with the feature. If you can not make it work, don't publish the game on that console. Problem solved.

@ te.

Your "combat strategy" is called guessing. Its not a strategy, its crossing your fingers and hoping for the best.

You are doing well as the heroes, you have problems fighting. And you have a problem, blocking their light attacks. Tip - its not going to get better, because light attacks on console are too fast to react to because of a combination of reasons.

Hey HillBill79, can you guide me where that setting is? Does it resolve the disconnect issues for you? Or do you still get disconnects even with this setting in place?

What platform are you on?

I'm PC, yellow NAT I rarely get disconnects.... the ones I do get, tend to be either VS Ai, or because of Anti Cheat software detecting security failures among other players.

I was green NAT initially and had a lot of DC's..... it changed to yellow on its own after a maintenance ... and the DC's stopped for the most part.

When you are in a team mode, it is a team pvp, it is no less a team pvp than the likes of Destiny just because it lacks guns, it is still two teams of players and if one player goes off solo and goes against the whole other team by themselves they will still die, and should do for bad team play. What OP said is basically team pvp 101.

@JayyRupp, maybe you can show me the mechanics? Gamertag "iPlay Savage AF" on xbox one.

I am confident with atleast 5 chars. Let me know, if you have time to show me the mechanics, and how you feel this game is broken. Maybe you can pick an "OP" Char, and ill see what I can do.

Todays orders (6 in total) which can be actually done in less than 1 hour, literally took me a total of 6 and a half hours to complete, because of that many dc's and re-lobbying !!! - and as said about a 350 times already, no it is NOT my internet - it's sh1tload expensive, super fast and stable with an all green NAT.

You're a **** player with a hasty, ill-thought-out set of opinions that you - in your self-absorbed, egotistical bubble - fail to recognise doesn't apply to the vast majority of the players because they've, you know, actually played the ****ing game for longer than a week.

The game isn't broken at your turd-munching level, it's broken at the high end where people have been playing since release or before that in the alphas, tech tests and betas. You know when I and the host of other people who have dropped this game had fun? When we were terrible at it.

But no, please, go on about how we all need to git gud and learn to adapt, teach us how to block (apparently you can't reaction block everything). I'm sure it's easy to see what the problems are from that high horse you're perched up, even though your head is jammed firmly up your own ***.
